Arrow IL- Where to get the X MR tuned in Illinois?

So I'm looking to add an intake and exhaust on the X MR, and no I don't have any plans for future mods. I was looking to get a better tune then stock and figured I might as well just get these bolt ons.

I don't have any plans to do any racing, just a fun weekend/daily driver.

The SST is still relatively new, and costs an arm and a leg to replace if it fails so I don't want to push it too hard.

What tuner would you guys recommend in the area that you know has had good experience tuning with the SST?

Thanks.

Devin @ Boomba racing is the one to see, imo. He's the only one who touches my Ralliart with SS-T and it's never had an issue pushing the power it has on my down-graded version of the transmission. After the tune it's like an entirely different machine. Well worth the investment and, from what I've heard being quoted, a good deal cheaper than AMS.

Though, to be fair, I have to admit that AMS is the original expert in the area and have definitely proven themselves worthy of their national recognition. I'm just saying that from my experience, and that of everyone I've referred over there, being DevinTuned is easily just as good (if not better in some aspects) than what you'd receive at AMS.

Thanks Kyle. That's pretty much what I've been thinking.

AMS has been well known for all of their work on the Evo. I know I can trust them and they are reputable.

I have also been hearing a lot of good things about Boomba, especially their experience with tuning with the SST. I just want to pick a tuner that is familiar with the SST and knows it's limits.

I'm going to contact Boomba to get their insight. They are closer to me then AMS so that's a plus.

BTW, Devin is no longer @ Boomba Racing. He's opened his own shop in Addison now, Boostin Performance. Definitely check him out over there
